Conditions We Treat

We serve patients from ages 5 to 17 years. The children and teens we serve come from a broad spectrum of socioeconomic levels and diverse ethnic and cultural backgrounds. Often, the patients we see present with age-typical behaviors or situational psychiatric conditions. However, we also treat more serious emotional and behavioral disturbances. Many patients and their families also seek psychological assistance to cope with acute or chronic medical problems.
